Of sex and science. Elizabeth Pisani's blog about HIV and other sundry things.

Well, those folks at DKT in Indonesia have done it again. Not content to rest on their laurels with the official Democrat Party condom, they’ve now got Indonesia abuzz in anticipation of The Earthquake, a vibrating condom which will be launched on February 23 (but which is available to the cognoscenti of Jakarta from today — visit your local Circle K)

Indonesia has more than 130 active volcanoes, and it’s had more than it’s fair share of earthquakes in recent years, with unhappy results for thousands of families. Doubtless, some fragile soul will complain that the new condoms are insensitively named. But I think it is great that Fiesta is giving a whole new meaning to the “Ring of Fire”.

Oh my gosh, Elisabeth, maybe we should import the Earthquake into Malaysia too! A recent survey here said that Malaysian men are only interested in money, not how they look to women or even sex! Maybe this would shake them up!!!
